Complaints

What happens if you complain

Our goal is to give excellent service to all of our customers but we know things go wrong sometimes. We take all the complaints we receive seriously and aim to resolve any problems you might experience promptly. We strive for continuous improvement and welcome your feedback to help us with this.

If you make a complaint:

We will acknowledge your complaint within two working days

We will aim to resolve your complaint within five working days

Once we have fully investigated your complaint and assessed your concerns, we will respond with a decision.

In most cases we are able to resolve our customers’ concerns quickly but sometimes we need to make more detailed enquiries. When this happens we will contact you with an update and give you an expected date of response. All complaints are investigated at a senior level.

If you are not happy with the final decision, you can refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).

The FOS will only consider your complaint if you have given us the opportunity to resolve it and are a private policyholder. However, if we don’t resolve your complaint within 40 working days, the FOS will accept a direct referral.

Whilst we are bound by the decision of the FOS, you are not.

If you are still not satisfied following the decision from the FOS, we recommend that you take independent legal advice.
